• *Slightly off-topic but relevant enough to mention.

    I would really recommend wearing a UV protectant jersey, at first I thought a long sleeved top would be uncomfortable in 30 plus, but it's much easier than having to re-apply sunscreen. And saves that for exposed areas, face, hands etc.

    I'd definitely be keen to do this more. What holds me back a bit is that I do a lot of (indeed, basically exclusively) off road riding, which does get stuff scratched up quite badly. Though on the plus side it does often mean I'm in the shade. But I will be keeping a lookout for stuff that could work.

    Looks like decathlon do a few but both models are out of stock. https://www.decathlon.co.uk/search?Ntt=Men%27s+Anti-UV+Long-Sleeved+Road

  • Yes, I have the cheaper, quarter zip one and wish I'd bought more than one! Hopefully they'll bring them back.

    They also make them for running and surfing, you lose the back pocket, but still well worth it.
